Gogyohka Japanese Poem
A chapter in the book Tanka Collection
Loon's Melancholic Songs
by Gypsy Blue Rose
in the longest night of winter,
loon sings melancholic songs drizzled with anguish-filled notes — in solidarity, I drench my pillow crying along |

Fiction
Loons make a mournful sound. When darkness falls, Loons make wolf-like wails that are haunting
GOGYOHKA is a five-line free-style Japanese poetic form with no strict rules on syllables count but as brief as possible. Any theme. Lines are grammatically connected. Alliteration, personification, and metaphor are okay but never rhyme. Japanese poets have written gogyohka since the 1910s. However, they did not name the form until 1983 by poet Enta Kusakabe. wikipediafor more info click here
